I have the Asus Z170-A Motherboard and two Bluetooth speakers that connect together as a stereo set-up. My computer doesn't have Bluetooth and I'm not sure how I should connect these speakers as they both have separate aux ports for when you only want to use one. This is a picture of the audio settings for my motherboard (http://imgur.com/a/rO0kU) and the colored circles on the bottom correspond with the ports on the back. Other than that, I don't understand hardly anything about all of this. I would really appreciate any help!

I'm not 100% sure on this, but I think you will need to find a splitter cable that takes a stereo 3.5mm jack and splits it into the L and R channels. Then plug that into the bright green port in the rear, and plug the aux cables for the left and right speakers into that.

The problem I could see with this is that the speakers will only be getting left or right audio. They may not be built for this and sound quite odd. Or it may not work at all if I'm wrong. :p

Hope that helped at least a little! :)
